Once again, the call to the bullpen is for the lefty.

The lineup:
cf - Spanned out
3b - Nonez (!)(?)
1b - Beltless
c - Poser
ss - Crawedferd
rf - Pensive
2b - Paniked
lf - Blanco out
sp - Getting Cained

They get their names back once they look legitimate again. That goes for all of them.

A hit with a RISP!!!

Okay, so Posey gets his last name back, and Nunez looks good too so far this evening. As for the rest of them . . . (Beltless and Spanned out, I'm looking at YOU! )

 

[Stokes1931]

Blanco with the chance to break the game open. And K's. Shocking.

 

[1phlapdown]

Nine straight for Cainer? Brings to mind his playoff run in '10.

 

[BeerMe]

Wow! 2 triples for Nunez, his speed is exciting

 

[Stokes1931]

4-9 with RISP

Who are those guys?

The ones missing for the past month?

Hopefully Cain gives us 7

Hopefully this offense is begining to catch fire.

Fire?!?

I would take "barely smoldering" over what we have been seeing of late.

Down goes Harper...

Horse!

For all of our whining about our team, imagine the Nats' fandom with the play of Harper this year.

Yep, there was an article about Cutch too...

 

[Stokes1931]

Blanco hitting .152 (9-59) in his last 30 games. Ugh.

Harper has struggled. But he would lead the Giants in HR by a bunch, and would be 2nd in RBI's. Not sure what that says, except that even a star playing badly on another team would lead the Giants.

 

[Stokes1931]

Leadoff single. Cain at 95 pitches. Pull him. Now!

 

[1phlapdown]

C'mon Cain keep it together...
